I heat my vials up each time I take an injection, I get the cup of water, drop my vial in, take a shower, then pin. Heated oil is easier to pin versus room temp oil. Try it out and c if it works for u.

Honestly, it's the sterility of that practice that worries me. Not that water is going to get in the vial... more along the lines of it getting under the metal crimp around the stopper. That can make for a breeding ground. Obviously I swab the stopper with alcohol first, but I do not take sterility lightly. I pin too often to get sloppy. Even when I heated this vial, I held it's crimp above the water line. Maybe I'm crazy... maybe not. I guess I could always hold the crimp above the water line... Maybe I will try it. I don't really have issues with oil viscosity regardless.

(look at the guy pinning cloudy UGL gear lecture about sterility... I know, but I'm OCD like that)

I like my coffee cup method, its easy for anyone to understand....

As far as water getting into the vial, that is almost impossible. Once the vial is out of the water, u should continue to swab the stopper as u normally would....

About 24 hours later and the Primo is still perfectly clear. I got this vial over the winter and the only reasonable explanation is that it must have gotten cold at some point. Haven't pinned it yet. I'll update.

That's awesome, and very surprising to me, I tried a couple different ways to keep my npp clear but just as soon as it cooled it fell out of solution. Glad it worked for ya
